CAVS install new AV system 'seamlessly' at St James Church, Trowbridge

Creative Audio-Visual Solutions (CAVS) are a dedicated church audio and visual supplier working throughout the UK.

The Hertfordshire-based company were recently commissioned to install a new audio and visual system into the Parish Church of St James in Trowbridge. The brief was to ensure that that all new equipment fitted seamlessly into the environment whilst providing the latest technologies for full range worship and advanced multimedia display.

The visual system consists of 3 discreet winched projection screens which hide behind the arches when not in use. These utilise 7,500 and 5,000 projectors for the highest image quality across all sources from words to pictures and video. An HD motorised camera was installed – allowing close-ups of activities to be projected as well as providing the means to record and stream services online. Flexible HDMi connectivity was installed for laptop and ‘comfort’ monitor connection.

The audio system features 12 column array speakers to fit with the pillar décor – sublimated with 2 subwoofers to provide true full range sound amplification. A digital matrix processor ensures the audio system is fully tuned to the room and the likeliness of feedback and other acoustic anomalies is virtually eradicated. A digital mixer with wireless iPAD control was installed allowing for all types of operator and the simple recall for different types of service at the touch of a button. A portable digital stagebox provides up to 16 instrument inputs at the platform for a large worship band.

New radio microphones were installed along with audio playback (including Bluetooth connectivity) and recording systems. Finally, the system equipment was installed within a bespoke console - utilising parts of the church pews to marry effortlessly with the building's aesthetics.
